Abstract
Pot experiments were performed to investigate the effects of Tritluralin on the mycorrhizal symbiosis of conifer seedlings. Infected forcst soils and potting mixturcs were mixed, pottcd and treated with Trifluralin at levels of 0.2 and 0.4ml/m2 Seeds of Pinus sylvestris L. and Picea abies (L.) Karst. were sown in the pots. The concentrations tested, though recommended by the manufacturer produced phytotoxicity. The seedling growth in general and that of the rootsystem and laceral roots in particular, were severely inhibited. Mycorrhizal development in the seedlings was consequently adversely affected.
